DryLin® linear bearing application examples
Oil- and maintenance-free
DryLin® linear bearings and linear guides are designed to operate without lubrication or maintenance. This means that they are suitable for a wide range of applications ranging from medical and laboratory equipment, packaging machinery, food processing equipment, and applications in dirty or dusty environments.
Since the plastic sliding elements that replace ball bearings are produced through injection molding, the DryLin® range offers a significant price advantage.
